Kurama-kaido

Unlike other streets featured on the program, in this episode we look at a street that runs north from central Kyoto all the way to the Japan Sea. Stretching 72 km from Kyoto to Obama in Fukui Prefecture, Kurama-kaido is Kyoto's main link to the sea. It has played an important role since ancient times transporting seafood and goods to the landlocked capital. 

We start our trip at Kuramaguchi, the origin, and travel the first 12 kilometers to Kurama-dera, from which the road gets its name.
